The Dublin steps which go from Via San Giacomo in Monte to Via Besenghi, were previously called the Joyce steps, as the renowned writer lived close by, in the third floor appartment where he began writing one of his most acclaimed works, Ulysses.

I love the way the leaves echo the colours of the roofs in the background, and how the distant view is framed by the trees! There are so many lines, all going in so many directions, and yet they all work to make serene photo!Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful! The composition, the colors, the perspective. I visited Joyce's house in Dublin and now, as I find out he lived in Trieste, you made me curious to see with my own eyes the place I see in your photo.

Hi!my family is the only one living in scala Dublino (at n.1 just in front of the Giardino Basevi entrance).In fact our "scala" was formerly known as via Besenghi n.3 and scala James Joyce n.1 ...so we changed address two times without moving a step!The latter denomination was due to an error by workers of the "Comune" who mismatched our location with another "scala" near by, where Joyce lived in a flat. This brought a correction involving both the "scale".
